Shell and tube heat exchanger HTHE

for ships

Bowman Header Tank Heat Exchangers were designed originally for marine engines, but they are also widely used for various land based duties, such as engine testing and development work, generator sets, fire pumps and combined heat and power systems (CHP). Our units incorporate a quiet zone header tank with a special de-aeration feature and a pressurised filler cap. The removable tube stack is held in position by ‘O’ rings and is free to expand and contract within the cast housing, thus minimizing thermal stresses. It can be easily removed should cleaning be necessary. Bowman manufacture a large range of header tank heat exchangers, there is a choice on the raw water side of single pass, two pass and three pass heat exchangers for different flow rates. There are also different end cover materials depending on whether the heat exchangers are used with fresh water, sea water or contaminated water. Our header tank units are high-quality products incorporating both the best materials and the latest technical features.
